The Matriarch Chapter 109 A final bargain
They had about a thousand men of the eastern armies, along with troops from some of the neighboring lords of the lands that supported him. They were now marching on for the capital, ready to rage for battle. Up on a cliff overlooking their army, the two commanders stood there, gazing at the sizable military that they had. Thanks to Chris’s preparation, they did not take long to mobilize as they had been preparing for an all out attack for some time now. “I think this would all be over if we included little one’s forces with us.” Hemlock was wiping the staff that was given to him by the human, making sure that it had no dent and was not showing any signs of incompatibility with his magic. “I’d rather not involved him anymore than he already is.” Asron heaved a sigh. He had left him there with those beasts and only took Cortus and the youngsters. With how he was, he did now want to add up to the young ones’ dilemma, granting that they were going to war. “We’ll, even with this nu
The Matriarch Chapter 110 The war begins
When dawn came, the eastern army lined up, at the ready within the capital’s horizon.As the sun rose, so was the start of their march.On the enemy’s side, the commander of the empire stood as vanguards. Prepared with their troops to defend the city of Ruthar.All of them wore red, spiked armors, armed with spears, swords, and shields. All of their equipment had hinges and gears clicking as it made rotating sounds.They knew them as the army of iron, known as the best among their ranks.“Are you sure about this, old friend?”Asron asks as his comrade.The grand wizard flew into the air, holding on to his mystical staff that had a large orb on its top end. The thing glowed as the caster levitated higher.“Yes, I wish to avoid as minor damage as possible, and I think I’ll be able to do that with my magic and this gift that little one gave me.”Hemlock chuckled, showing him his new weapon.The fellow was quite happy about the present; it being the first and most mystical thing he had ev
The Matriarch Chapter 111 The Drogan hero
With a grin on his face and a sharp look in his eyes, the drogan warrior lunges at the enemy. He’d plow at any opponent who stood in his way, making them fly in the air with each smack of a hand.It didn’t take long before he reached the commanders of the said group which he immediately attacked.“I’m impressed you still had the courage to face me!”Asron’s blood was rushing in his veins, feeling that adrenaline and anger fueling him. Each hit that he would land was enough to make the two royal guards back away.Both could not take the weight and strength of each strike, as the fellow was not holding out on them.“I wouldn’t miss this for anything!”Groshian groaned as he tried to meet the guy’s last blow, but to no avail, causing him to kneel from the shock. Hands trembling, the guard struggled to keep his posture to stand his ground.Lerold took that chance to counter with the use of his magical weapon, sending a blast of energy towards him.Not being fazed by it, he faces the attac
The Matriarch Chapter 112 The end and beginning of a siege
After a long interrogation of the royal guards, they found a secret passageway underneath the city, through the underground canals.They instructed the troops to continue the siege as he and Hemlock make their way into the castle from the entrance.A good few hours and they reached the well where the group came in, they listen for an exceptional amount of time, to be sure that it was clear.When the two of them agreed it was okay, the wizard swish his hand and they shoot out of there, straight into the back garden, surrounded by several armored soldiers who in waiting.“It looks like we’ve gotten ourselves into a pinch.”His friend was counting the number of enemies that were there. It seems there were a good portion of them, and they had prepared for such an event. As there were some of them that had a unique set of equipment.“Then I think it is time I use this.”He taps on to his bastard sword, smirking as he had also expected the situation and was even looking forward to it, consi
The Matriarch Chapter 113 Insidious thoughts
It has already been three days since they took over the capital. And they finished re-establishing the defenses within the wall, along with fortifying some areas in it.And to make sure that their enemies know of their victory, they were now displaying the high-ranking officers they held captive, tying them up in wooden sticks, before making them face outside the city, on the north, in the empire's direction.“Pity, you truly are a remarkable opponent. It’s sad that you won’t live to see another day.”Veldebor, although weak and coughing blood, still continued to spit words of warning and intimidation.The guy was confident that at any moment, the imperial army would march in on the horizon, ready to take on the capital.“Better not speak too early. I’m resilient in a fight.”Asron grins as he tightened the rope on the fellow’s feet. It did not affect him at all, since he was looking forward to another battle.It made the soldier wince in pain, groaning to hold on to his scream.“This
The Matriarch Chapter 114 The new king
From the castle walls, they watched the incoming and outgoing patrols of the kingdom. They had been vigilant from the start, making sure that their domains were not being invaded by the monsters.Thankfully, the cliffs and forest wall that were created all over the place were enough to stop their advancement into their lands.“We are completely cut off from the others.”Hemlock sighed.The eastern and northern territories were now impassable because of the krads. The western dock received little ships and the southern area had nothing to offer because of the forbidden forest.“At least we’re no longer the only ones who have to worry about those monsters.”Asron grinned, able to relax about those enemies.Though they lost a large part of their territory, they did not have to fret about the neighboring kingdoms attacking, and they were now in the same situation as them.He felt they had finally gotten the retribution that they had longed for after being mocked and ridiculed by them.“Th
The Matriarch Chapter 115 A bitter argument
Everyone remained silent as they stared at what Chris was holding. None of them could believe that he could return the drogan to a babe.Aslein, being in his true form, looked so innocent and cute as he should have been from the beginning.“How is this possible?”Was all Asron could say as he was on his knees, tearing up at the sight of his child. The warrior was could not help his emotions from rushing.“It’s because I removed him from his shell. The body he had before was but an armor. It was a precautionary measure I had to put to make sure he survives if something were to happen to me.”He explained the method that he had used.Of course, he could not divulge that mystery before since it may endanger the babe, so he kept it a secret from everyone. The idea of a fearsome fighter was so that no one would dare try to do anything on the child.“I’ve never heard of such a spell.”Hemlock was still wide eyes, unable to remove his sight from the sleeping infant in his hands.“That’s beca
The Matriarch Chapter 116 A doubt in belief
They were taking a stroll within the castle gardens after that little debate.It didn’t bode well for him, especially after the youngsters starting asking questions about why he had done that, instead of fighting them off.Cortus and the others were questioning his reasoning behind all that, cause even he seemed he did not understand himself that time.“Weren’t you too harsh with little one? I thought you’ve already moved on with his use of magic?”Hemlock states. His expression showed concern as he notices the pain and weight on Asron’s face.“He used Herlein’s womb to create that weapon!”It still pained him to know that they did such an atrocity on his beloved wife. That was the one thing that he could not get over with up to now.“And how do you think would he have saved your son if he did not use it?”The wizard asks, piqued by such a reasoning, considering that the human had already explained himself well.He had also wanted to make his friend understand the entire situation was
